The International Series GTFX and GVFX Grid-Interactive Inverter/Charger
The International Series GTFX and GVFX Inverter/Chargers (also referred to as the FX series) oer
a complete power conversion system — DC to AC, battery charging, and an AC transfer relay —
which provide complete grid-interactive service. They can also be used in a stand-alone or back-up
application. These systems are designed for indoor or enclosed locations.
OutBack Power Systems does everything possible to assure the components you purchase will
function properly and safely when installed as instructed according to local and national electrical
codes. Please read all of the following instructions and the instructions that come with any other
OutBack components that make up your power system. Further instructions on individual FX set-ups
as well as systems assemblies are included with the FLEXware manuals.
The International Series GTFX and GVFX inverters produce an output voltage of 230 Vac per inverter.
NOTE: This product is not CE compliant for grid-interactive operations.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions and cautionary markings on the FX, the batteries and all appropriate sections of
this installation and user manual as well as other component manuals before using the system.
Be cautious around electricity, electrical components, and batteries. Shocks, burns, injury, and even
death can occur if an installer comes in contact with electricity.
Install all components and wiring according to national and local electrical and building codes. This
includes:
• Submittingaplantothelocalbuildingdepartment
• Passinginspection
• Requiringalicensedelectriciantodotheworkwhenmandated
OutBack Power Systems cannot be responsible for system failure, damages, or injury resulting from
improper installation of their products.
Use only the recommended DC and AC wire sizes or greater. Be sure all wires are in good condition.
Install the FX in a dry location, preferably indoors.
• InstalltheFXinashadedareaoutofdirect

• Ifmountedwiththebasedown,watercannotbeallowedtoaccumulatearoundtheFX’sbase.
There is a drainage system on the base of the FX to dispel condensation. If submerged, water can
enter this drain and cause failure.

INITIAL INSPECTION
Your FX is stoutly packaged for secure shipping. Please inspect the packaging and component for
damage prior to installation.

sloped lid can also be used to direct the ow of hydrogen to the vent opening.
CAUTION
To reduce risk of injury, charge only deep-cycle lead acid, lead antimony, lead calcium, gel cell or
absorbed glass mat type rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries may burst, causing personal
injury and damage. Never charge a frozen battery.

SYSTEM PROTECTION
Electrical systems are designed to protect you, the wires, the components, and the devices served by
the system.
Each FX must be part of a permanently grounded
electrical system (see page 8). Grounding protects
people and equipment from electrical shock.
Grounding must be done according to local and
national electrical codes.
Circuit breakers — rated at 100% duty cycle —
protect wiring by limiting the amount of current
entering a system. All wired electrical systems
require circuit breakers or fuses for protection.
OutBack oers both breakers and fuses for over-
current protection. If they are provided by other
vendors, they must be properly rated.

AC WIRING ORIGINATION

Compartment Board
AC WIRING COMPARTMENT BOARD
•AC HOT OUT supplies power to the loads.
•AC NEUTRAL OUT acts as neutral leg for loads
supplied by the FX.
•CHASSIS GROUND connections are common
and act as grounds for both the incoming and
outgoing AC circuits.
•AC NEUTRAL IN acts as the neutral leg for AC
power supplied by either the grid or a generator
to the FX.
•AC HOT IN connects incoming AC from the grid
or a generator to the FX. This AC is used to run
loads and recharge batteries.
NOTE: 13.3 mm2(6 AWG) is the largest wire
size the AC Wiring Compartment Board can
accommodate.

the FX can malfunction.
The Terminal Block can be
unplugged for easier wire
installation and removal/
reinstallation of the FX.
AUX OUTPUT
(AUX+/AUX-): 12 Vdc

default is to drive cooling
fans or the Turbo Fan.

not connect anything to
them.
